Galactic cosmic rays are one of the possible mediators of the solar influence on climate. However, the impacts of GCR on clouds and climate systems are not fully understood. In this paper, we show that the high-altitude clouds associated with deep convective activities are responding to the decadal-scale cycles of GCRs and that the susceptible areas are seasonally variable. Most notable responses were found in August over tropical land areas, suggesting that the susceptivity of clouds to GCRs depends on the depth of convective activities and the abundance of aerosol precursor materials. Furthermore, following the activation of high-altitude cloud formation, an increase in sea surface temperature (SST) gradient was observed over the Pacific. Although the response of sea surface temperature to solar activity has mostly been discussed as mediated by solar radiations, we propose that another mechanism is possible: through the impact of GCRs on clouds and the resultant changes in atmospheric circulations.

The popularity of digital alternatives to printed materials has been holding the Printing industry back in recent years. Demand for printed materials has fallen as consumers and businesses have gradually transitioned towards online trading. Demand has also been edging downwards due to the growing popularity of reading online and through other electronic alternatives (e.g. e-readers and smartphones). Revenue is anticipated to tumble at a compound annual rate of 4.1% over the five years through 2024-25 to £9.2 billion, while profit is set to inch up to 5.5% as printing companies get some respite from pressures like inflation and high utility costs. The industry tanked in 2020-21 as the already declining circulation of newspapers and magazines sank to a new low owing to COVID-19 closures. According to ABC data, newspaper circulation of most major publications, like The Sun, The Times and The Guardian, fell by almost 50% during this period, slashing printing demand for these products. This was followed by the cost-of-living crisis – characterised by rampant inflation and climbing interest rates – denting demand in 2022-23 and 2023-24. Despite inflation inching back towards its target level in 2024-25, manufacturing output remains subdued, limiting demand for printed goods. As a result, revenue is forecast to drop by 0.8% in 2024-25. High substitute competition and shrinking demand from key markets like newspaper and magazine printing is also eating into revenue. However, some markets remain healthy, particularly book printing, as both domestic and export demand for British books remains strong despite economic headwinds. Revenue is expected to rise at a modest compound annual rate of 0.5% over the five years through 2029-30 to reach £9.5 billion. The industry is likely to continue to face fierce competition from substitutes for commercially printed material, including online advertising and publication of information. Many retailers, financiers and service providers are likely to move their operations online, limiting demand for printing services. However, printed books are likely to coexist with their electronic counterparts, supporting a steady source of demand for book printers. Commercial printers are likely to introduce different services, like digital printing and personalisation services, to increase revenue and remain profitable, but some of these services won’t be relevant to the industry. Surging niche markets will also offer new opportunities, like high fashion print advertising. These new opportunities will require printers to specialise in high-end materials and leverage partnerships with creative industries to be successful.

Sun Protecting Apparel Market Outlook

The global sun protecting apparel market size was estimated at USD 8.2 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach USD 14.6 billion by 2032, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8% during the forecast period. This growth is propelled by increasing awareness of skin protection against harmful UV rays and the rising incidence of skin cancer, which have driven the demand for sun protective clothing. As more consumers recognize the health risks associated with prolonged sun exposure, the demand for functional clothing that offers sun protection is expected to grow, thereby propelling the market forward.

A significant growth factor for this market is the heightened consumer awareness and understanding of the long-term effects of UV exposure, such as premature skin aging and skin cancer. The proliferation of health campaigns and educational programs has increased consumer awareness about the harmful effects of UV radiation, leading to a higher demand for protective apparel. Additionally, advancements in fabric technology have resulted in sun-protective clothing that is not only effective in blocking UV rays but also comfortable and stylish, encouraging more consumers to purchase these products. The integration of UV protection into a variety of clothing items, from casual wear to athletic apparel, has broadened the appeal and accessibility of sun-protective gear.

The growing sports and outdoor activities sector is another key driver for the sun protecting apparel market. As more people participate in outdoor sports and recreational activities, the demand for apparel that combines functionality with sun protection continues to rise. The increasing trend of outdoor fitness and the popularity of outdoor adventure sports are encouraging manufacturers to innovate and expand their product lines. Sports enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers require clothing that offers comfort, flexibility, and protection from the sun, creating a lucrative opportunity for the sun protecting apparel market. Moreover, the growing tourism industry, particularly in sun-rich regions, further fuels the market's expansion as tourists seek protection from intense sun exposure.

The fashion industry's influence cannot be overlooked as a growth factor in the sun protecting apparel market. Designers are incorporating sun-protection technology into fashionable clothing, making it more attractive to a broader audience. This trend is particularly significant in the womenÂ’s apparel segment, where style and functionality go hand in hand. The ability to merge fashion with health benefits offers a significant advantage, as consumers are more likely to invest in clothing that provides both aesthetic and protective benefits. In addition, collaborations between clothing brands and dermatologists or health organizations can further legitimize and promote sun-protective apparel as a necessary component of everyday fashion.

In recent years, the introduction of innovative products such as the Sun Protection Mask has further expanded the options available for consumers seeking comprehensive sun protection. These masks are designed to shield the face from harmful UV rays while providing comfort and breathability. With the rise of outdoor activities and heightened awareness of skin health, Sun Protection Masks have become a popular choice for individuals who spend extended periods in the sun. They offer an additional layer of protection, complementing other sun-protective apparel like hats and shirts. As consumers become more conscious of the need for full-face protection, the demand for Sun Protection Masks is expected to grow, contributing to the overall expansion of the sun protecting apparel market.

Regionally, North America is expected to maintain a strong position in the sun protecting apparel market due to the high awareness levels and proactive attitude towards health and wellness. Europe is following closely, with growing consumer interest in health-centric fashion. The Asia Pacific region is anticipated to witness the fastest growth, driven by increasing disposable incomes, rising health awareness, and the large populations of countries like China and India. Moreover, the region's expanding urbanization and changing lifestyles are contributing to the increased adoption of sun-protection apparel. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa, with their vast sunny climates, are also growing markets, although at a steadier pace, as consumer awareness continues to rise.

The global news ink and coldset market is experiencing robust growth, driven by the increasing demand for high-quality printing in newspapers and publications. While precise market size figures for 2025 are unavailable, based on industry reports and observed growth trajectories, we estimate the market value to be approximately $2.5 billion in 2025. This sector is projected to maintain a healthy Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.5% from 2025 to 2033, indicating a significant expansion over the forecast period. Key drivers include the ongoing digitization of media, necessitating high-impact print materials for targeted audiences, and the increasing preference for environmentally friendly inks, spurring innovation in sustainable printing technologies. Furthermore, the growing popularity of personalized newspapers and magazines, combined with an upsurge in commercial printing demand, contribute to this positive growth outlook. However, the market faces challenges from the persistent decline in print media readership, cost pressures related to raw materials, and stringent environmental regulations governing ink composition and disposal.
Despite these headwinds, market segmentation is proving advantageous. The market is divided into various segments based on ink type (e.g., soy-based, vegetable-based), printing method (e.g., offset, flexo), and application (e.g., newspapers, magazines). Major players such as Sun Chemical, DIC Group, Flint Group, and Toyo Ink are actively investing in research and development to introduce innovative products that address sustainability concerns and meet evolving market demands. This includes the development of bio-based inks with reduced environmental impact and improved performance characteristics. Regional variations exist, with North America and Europe currently holding substantial market shares, although growth is expected to be robust in emerging economies in Asia-Pacific and Latin America.

News consumption in the UK Over the past few decades, the UK newspaper industry has visibly struggled due to the proliferation of social media and other digital platforms.
